• Remember the Sabbath
  "When we are exhorted to remember the Sabbath and keep it holy, the word ‘holy’ simply means set apart for special use. In light of the Hebrew rules regarding the day, it would appear that the special use of the day does not have to do with giving yourself more to do." --Not only does this author twist the meaning of Sabbath to make it appear to be Sunday. He claims going to church violates Sabbath because he's not "resting" on that day. Worse yet, his claim to "remember" the Sabbath also takes away from the original reason for that word "remember" in commandment #4. That word "remember" is actually a prophetic statement. Prophecy clearly states we would be taught to forget Sabbath in both how to keep it holy, as well as which day of the week is actually the Sabbath.

• Government says Violating Faith 'No Burden' 
  "Attorneys for the Obama administration have explained to a federal appeals court that ordering company owners to violate their faith by paying for abortion pills does not amount to a significant "burden" at all." --Most, if not all lawyers are not Christians today. And those that are Christians are seeing their governments hindering their efforts to build Christian law firms. This is why they see no "burden" in asking Christians to pay for pills that kill babies. The fact Christianity is being attacked daily in the media with everything from jokes to insults to Catholic priests claiming to be Christians has made Christianity seem like a burden-less faith by most. But not all! Source: http://www.wnd.com

• Jewish Girl Disqualified for Sitting out the Sabbath 
  "An 11-year-old Orthodox Jewish table tennis phenom was reportedly disqualified from a national tournament last month after declining to play one of her matches on the Sabbath." --It's not that she's Jewish that matters here. The fact she opted to keep the Biblical Sabbath is what matters. And soon, those of us that keep it as remnant Christians will also be tested in how we stand on this issue. Do you have the faith to lose a friend, a business connection, a spouse, a job or even your head? If you're in the Word of God daily at present, you will no doubt fair well.

• Shop Workers Protest in Greece Against Sunday Opening  
  "Private sector shop employees in Greece have staged a one-day strike against having to work on Sundays." --Still don't think the people will agree to Sunday Laws? As we can see, the craftiness of Antichrist, as predicted in Daniel 8:25, is such that not only will they agree to Sunday Laws but that they too will take part in demanding them!

• Is Sunday Shopping a Sin?
  "Some in Italy are saying so, and there is a move afoot in parts of Europe to keep Sundays sacred: The Roman Catholic Church, trade unions and small business associations have joined forces in a bid to save Sundays." -- I wonder how many articles about the Vatican and civil authorities trying to create Sunday Laws are needed before some people decide there is truth regarding Sunday being the mark of the man of sin? Would a few hundred articles and videos in just the last few years be enough? If so, keep reading.Source: http://www.patheos.com

• Catholics Still Largest Denomination in New Congress
  "It's a historic high for the number of Catholics in Congress, with 163, although that's just two more seats than the previous high point, when there were 161 Catholics in the 111th Congress of 2009-10." --This is why America is in the mess it's in. In fact, this was the plan all along. The Vatican stated not too long ago that "They [Catholics] must penetrate wherever possible in the administration of civil affair... all Catholics should do all in their power to cause the constitution of states, and legislation to be modeled on the principles of the true Church." -Encyclical of Leo XIII.

• Obama only Wants Military Leaders who ‘will fire on U.S. Citizens’
  "I have just been informed by a former senior military leader that Obama is using a new "litmus test" in determining who will stay and who must go in his military leaders. Get ready to explode folks. "The new litmus test of leadership in the military is if they will fire on US citizens or not." Those who will not are being removed." --Now some may wonder why I would post such an article wherein it appears to be hearsay. In my January 1999, March 2002 and February 2006 Truth Provided Newsletters I posted question #43 that I was privy to, thanks to a minister that had a copy of the document regarding a military survey that was taken years prior that was later posted in Newswatch Magazine in their July/August 1995 issue, wherein they also asked our military if they would fire upon US citizens. Our government has been asking our soldiers this question for years. And as is obvious, they have also been reconditioning their minds to do just that for years. Could it be Obama's request will be the one that proves our soldiers are ready to kill their neighbors? Source: http://www.examiner.com

• White House Responds to Secession Petitions
  A"The White House has responded to the hundreds of thousands of Americans who signed digital petitions asking permission for states to peacefully secede from the union. In a nutshell, the answer is no.: --Surprised? Neither am I. They need to keep the States under Federal control if the NWO plans of the Vatican have any hope of forming into a global takeover that allows for the mark of the beast to be enforced in every nation on the planet. Bottom line is this: their lame excuse as to why the States won't be allowed to secede is nothing short of saying, they have done so much work to control every soul, how dare we run off before they get to play with their toys. Truth is, after we leave to be with Christ, the devil will know all too well what it's like to be standing all alone for1000 years unable to play his evil games with the souls rotting all around him. So be it. Maranatha!Source: http://www.wnd.com

The remnant will be a church that teaches Biblical "full immersion" baptism for repented adults only.
Romans 6:4, “Therefore we are buried with him by baptism into death: that like as Christ was raised up from the dead by the glory of the Father, even so we also should walk in newness of life.”

The Bible isn't saying here to, sprinkle ~ baptize thrice ~ baptize infants ~ baptize for the dead ~ etc. It is saying “… BURIED WITH HIM BY BAPTISM …”. (See "Baptism") Acts 8:38, “And he commanded the chariot to stand still: and they went down both into the water, both Philip and the Eunuch; and he baptized him.” 1 Corinthians 10:2, “And were all baptized unto Moses in the cloud and in the sea…” No need for confusion. The Scripture is plain here. Ephesians 4:5, “One Lord, one faith, one baptism,”

The remnant will be a church that has the gift of prophecy.
Revelation 12:17, “And the dragon was wroth with the woman, and went to make war with the remnant of her seed, which keep the commandments of God, and have the testimony of Jesus Christ.”

The "testimony of Jesus Christ"? The dragon (dragon = devil ...see Revelation 12:9) is angry with the woman (woman = church ...see Jeremiah 6:2) because she keeps the commandments and HAS the "testimony of Jesus Christ"? What IS the testimony of Jesus Christ? DO NOT go to your Pastor, Priest, Preacher or friend to get this answer. NEVER accept man's "opinion" on Biblical facts! The Bible will always explain itself just fine without the help of man. Revelation 19:10 declares rather bluntly that " …the testimony of Jesus is the spirit of prophecy."

According to the INFALLIBLE Word of God the "testimony of Jesus Christ" is the Spirit of PROPHECY. Does the church you seek have these gifts? Are you in the church God Almighty sent His Son Jesus to start and DIE for? Or are you in a church that is accepting "traditions of men" over and above what is so easily described of in the Holy Word of God? Remember, you will be ALONE on that day when you are judged. You cannot blame anyone but…yourself. What will you say when Jesus asks: "Who did you believe? Me? Or man?"

Daniel 11:17 He shall also set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom, and upright ones with him; thus shall he do: and he shall give him the daughter of women, corrupting her: but she shall not stand on his side, neither be for him.

• he = the fact it says "he shall also ..." denotes whoever is spoken of last in the previous verse is the one being spoken of in this verse, which is Rome led by Julius Caesar.
• set his face to enter with the strength of his whole kingdom = the word "with" = "against" in Hebrew. As arrogant as Caesar was, he went as he pleased against the remaining portion of Alexander's kingdom, that being of course, Egypt.
• thus he shall do = there was an agreement between the king of the north and king of the south.
• and he = Ptolemy XI = king of south
• him = Julius Caesar
• daughter of women = Cleopatra daughter of Ptolemy XI. Ptolemy XI placed his two children, Cleopatra and Ptolemy XII, under guardianship of Rome before his death in 51BC. Cleopatra came on the scene after Alexander's death and was a member of the Ptolemaic dynasty during the Hellenistic period. (Hellenistic = the time when Alexander's four generals ruled Greece).
• corrupting her = Caesar corrupted Cleopatra by having her as his mistress. She was also corrupted politically as history proves. After Caesar was assassinated, she tried to join her forces with Marc Antony to defeat Octavian so as to merge Egypt and Rome. They failed and both Antony and Cleopatra committed suicide.
• neither be for him = Cleopatra was not "with" Caesar politically as he originally assumed. Her loyalty remained with her father's kingdom of the south. This is confirmed after his assassination in 44 BC (see verse 19) when she and Marc Antony tried to merge Egypt with Rome's growing Empire presently under the rule of Octavian, her stepson, who was later called Augustus Caesar. Cleopatra sought to have her illegitimate son Caesarion (with Julius Caesar) rule instead of Caesar's rightful heir, Octavian. Her and Anthony of course failed in the battle at Actium. It was then they both committed suicide. When she died, the Ptolemaic dynasty ended. Rome took control of the Grecian kingdom.

Daniel 11:18 After this shall he turn his face unto the isles, and shall take many: but a prince for his own behalf shall cause the reproach offered by him to cease; without his own reproach he shall cause it to turn upon him.

• he = Julius Caesar again for emphasis
• the isles = war in other parts of the empire drew Julius Caesar away from Egypt, where he was successful. He invaded all the remaining coastlands of Africa, Syria, and Asia Minor. (isles also = sea coasts)
• a prince for his own behalf = Caesar's military commander named G. Cassius Longinus who was the brother in law to Marcus Junius Brutus. Brutus befriended Caesar and his political desires.

• reproach = Rome was a republic but after many successful conquests, Caesar was offered the title of dictator. This would be a reproach to the republic and no doubt the reason for his assassination.
• shall cause it to turn upon him = Caesar's insolence/arrogance was turned upon him to the point of assassination. Reason being is, Caesar wanted to remove the Republican form of government to become Dictator. Out of fear, those that were "with him" in this desire also feared death and so turned on Caesar. Hence the famous final statement of Caesar, "et tu Brute", which translated means "and you, Brutus?"

Daniel 11:19 Then he shall turn his face toward the fort of his own land: but he shall stumble and fall, and not be found.

• he = Julius Caesar
• his own land =Julius Caesar returns to Rome.
• stumble and fall = his political aspirations to rule as dictator cause his fall. He literally "stumbles and falls" after being stabbed 23 times by Cassius, Brutus and others. His assassination happens in the Theatre of Pompey in Rome on the ides of March (March 15), 44 BC.
• not be found = the Grecian dynasty's prophesied end after 268 years of rule in Palestine. Rome takes control and becomes the next king of this part of the northern kingdom. (It's not until 30BC that Rome is able to take control of the territory of the king of the south.) Jerusalem never again regains independence. In fact, they are under Roman rule all the way up to 70AD when Titus destroys the city.

Daniel 11:20 Then shall stand up in his estate a raiser of taxes in the glory of the kingdom: but within few days he shall be destroyed, neither in anger, nor in battle.

• stand up in his estate = Octavian, (later called Augustus) the son of Cleopatra and Caesar became Augustus Caesar.
• a raiser of taxes = Octavian (Augustus) did “reform the taxes” in his administration. This was during the time of Christ’s birth. Luke 2:1 actually says, "And it came to pass in those days, that there went out a decree from Caesar Augustus, that all the world should be taxed." (It was this tax that eventually brought Joseph and Mary to Bethlehem.)
• within a few days shall be destroyed = Augustus died rather quickly. He only ruled 13 years. Roman rulers were elected for life. 13 years was not a long time for a Roman ruler. Even his father, Julius Caesar, who was cut short in assassination in 44 BC, ruled 56 years.
• day = a year. See Numbers 14:34 or Ezekiel 4:6
• neither in anger, nor in battle = Augustus died peacefully in his bed while visiting the place of his father's death, on August 19, 14 AD. He died of natural causes; either by disease or old age. It was most assuredly not in battle, nor in anger that he died. He was 77 at death. It has been implied by some sources that his fourth wife, Livia, poisoned him to have her son, Tiberius, rule in his stead.

• Pope Sits on Gold Throne Worried About Income Inequality  
  "There's something deeply… ironic? Disturbing? ...about a man sitting on a throne made of solid gold complaining about the gap between rich and poor, especially while surrounded by accusations of money-laundering, but Pope Benedict XVI is no stranger to controversy or irony (or the Hitler Youth, as it turns out.)" --As we get close to the end, more and more people will have their eyes opened about this.

• Death Penalty for Holding Bible? 
  "Just possessing a Bible still can be cause for a death penalty in North Korea, so it's no surprise that the hermit kingdom remains No. 1 on this year's World Watch List of the world's most notorious persecutors of Christians, a project assembled by Open Doors USA." --Now we see yet another so called Christian organization hiding the truth about Islam. North Korea does persecute and even kill Christians, yes, but they mostly jail them. At present, 70,000 are in concentration camps for their faith right now. But Muslims kill on average 200,000 a year! Yet this article says N. Korea is number 1? And no, Islam is not "the" Antichrist. See the well documented prophetic facts debunking that theory here.

• National Cathedral to Perform Same-sex Weddings 
  "As the nation's most prominent church, the decision carries huge symbolism. The 106-year-old cathedral has long been a spiritual center for the nation, hosting presidential inaugural services and funerals for Ronald Reagan and Gerald Ford. It draws hundreds of thousands of visitors." --In other words, the "symbol" for Christianity in this nation has now openly embraced homosexuality just as Jesus predicted all those wallowing in Satan's camp will in our day.

• Catholic Hospital Argues Fetuses are Not People 
  "Catholic organizations have for decades fought to change federal and state laws that fail to protect "unborn persons," and Catholic Health's lawyers in this case had the chance to set precedent bolstering anti-abortion legal arguments. Instead, they are arguing state law protects doctors from liability concerning unborn fetuses on grounds that those fetuses are not persons with legal rights." --This proves the Catholic Church lied (again) when it claims to be pro-life. Besides the blunt reality, there are Catholic hospitals aborting children already; the fact they see a way to get out of a lawsuit by claiming the babies are "persons" proves they are only pro-life when it benefits their political agenda, and pro-choice when there's money to be had. Still, will this single article placed on the millions of other articles exposing the prelates in Rome as the most evil men on the planet cause a mass exodus from the church? Not at all. Catholicism is structured so as to preach you can be saved IN SIN rather than from sin. To leave now would mean they will have to go to a church that says sin is something they need to give up permanently. So again, this church won't have much to worry about when it comes to any "devout" Catholics jumping ship on this one. If the tens of thousands of articles, videos, Vatican doc files, and pictures posted on this site alone have not moved them out of Babylon, this one article won't even make a dent. Still, this does prove WE HAVE WORK TO DO for Christ. Do you have a desire to help warn the people? If so, please contact us asap. Source: http://www.huffingtonpost.com
